Fashion Photography

Fashion photography has been around since atleast 1904 and that was by a man called Sir Cecil Walter Hardy Beaton, the reason why it is so popular is because in today's age there are so many demands to look good or smeel good, so there are many magazines out there that tell you tips on how to look good and so on. the reason why there so popular is because the models they use are normally very attractive and many want to be them. Normally when picture's are taken they use airbrush, which is a tool you can use to edit your model or photo. you can change anything from the hair to removing bits of skin that stand out. its an amazing tool and sadly these days is used to much on people. Here to your left is a perfect example of airbrushing. The photo is taken and then edited and sometimes it has a huge effect or difference on the model.

Portraiture

Portraiture has been around many many years and to this day the most famous picture of all has to be the Mona Lisa created by Leoanrdo Di Vinci, that was made many centeries and as time has gone on generations of family's understand the importance of this picture. it is said that it took about 8 years to complete as Leonardo stopped and started this picture.




This is another picture with value. this pocture was taken when Churchill was in power and it shows that he ahs ower by the stance the picture si taken in. he is standing looking very serious witha  slight stance. It is also very good because of the detail knowing that this picture came sucha  long time ago.

Cecil Beaton was a very powerful portrait photographer and was known as the photographer during the inter war years. he managed to tell peoples mood's just from pictures, and manage to capture what was going on around the images. He is also famous for taking pictures of Marilyn Monroe and wasnt just a photographer he was a set designer, actor and painter.
